In the House of Loacs yesterday evening—excepting the irssing through Committee of the Duchess of Kent's Annuity liill--t'ne business was confined to the presentation of peti tions, amongst which was one from forty-three Magistrates of Sessex. The petitioners stated that they were constently called upon to commit persons to prison for petty stealing ; diet often those persons so committed remained in prison for five or six weeks before taking their trial ; and that afterwards, e.hen convicted before a jury, taking their former length of im prisonment into c:nsideretion, the Magistrates could only iisfliet what appeared to be a very small punishment, the cans,: I of which not appearing to the public, it was liable to be-re. garded by them as ne inefficient pueishment. Lord BROUGHAM on presentieg a petition condemnatory of all coercive measures ng,aiest Caende, took occasion to state the cause why he did net remain in: the ilewie on the previous evening to bear Lord GI,F.NELG'S speech. The Noble and • Learred Lord said, I did net expect that lie intended to answer my second speech. However, my Lords, as to my gcieg a7ay, I have brsides to say that I was yeaterday sloNsly and partielly recovering Irma a severe iedispcs:tion, having been under medical treetment, and advised hy my physicians to earctul n; exposing myself in inclement weefeer.

THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1738 array of grave and weighty reasons why the United States should co-operate with the rebels, in enabling ,hem to throw off what our New York Contemporary calls the " oppressive yoke" of the mother country. So much for our impartiality, as well as with our thorough acquaintance with the corroborating testi mony quoted by the Learned Ex-Member for Bath. But we have not yet done with Mr. ROEBUCK'S " Note." He says, in justification of his previous mis-statement, that the law invoked by President VAN BUREN is a dead letter, and that the language employed by him was precisely that of General JACK SON in the case of Texas, whose interference was wholly useless. This is " leaping out of the frying-pan into the fire". with a vengeance. In excusing one error, Mr. ROEBUCK falls into another, not quite so grave, we admit, but far more inexcusable, because relating to occurrences fresh in the remem brauce of every body who paid the last regard to them. Now President JACKSON never once invoked the law cited by President VAN Burtve against the enlist ment of private citizens in the Texian insurrection ; and we defy Mr. ROEBUCK to point out any similarity between the language employed to preserve the national good faith with Mexico, and that now used respecting the neutrality to be observed in the case of Great Britain and her colonies in North America. The justice of the revolt in Texas was argued for several (ley; in the Congress of the United States—it was well known that there was not a functionary in the Federal Union who did not desire the triumph of the Texie ns— and in fact so strong was the general feeling on this subject, that it was gravely deliberated by the heads of the Executive, whether the Federal Uninn ought to give the 'Mexican Ambassador a pledge to remain neutral, even fur a limited time. The United States' Foreign Enlistment Bill remained at that time a dead letter—but wherefore does Mr. ItoEnucre suppose ? Not because the Executive had forgotten all al•out its existtnce ; not because its provisions were found im practicable, and that it would be madness to attempt the chastisement of its violators ; nut lecauee. the citizens of the United States would refuse obedience to so preposterous a law. It remained a dead letter became it required the proclamation of the PRESIDENT to give it vitality—a wise and necessary precaution on the part of the Government of a great commereial people, and one which we should be glad to see adopted in !his country. We repeat, therefore, that Mr. ROEBUCK'S " assertions"—proclaimed at a public meeting of his countrymen, plinted by him in the Tz-zte Sun, and re-prMted in the first enmber of time Canadian Porziolio—were neither verbally no; eubstantially cem is ; an d we ma add, that we were only induced at fi eit to canter dirt them from o'eserving the troubler which he took to give them eatensi-.e correney. In being thus exp'.icit, we wish it to be understood that we should ! , e exceedingly sorry to impute other than the best natives which can influence the conduet of an advo ezte—of an avowed Representa:ive of the House of AssemYv—to Mr. ROEBUCK. Hi; feelings and svmnpe:hies, and not his interests, warp his better jadgment. Mr. I{ 0 EBITC ar,uments in s,upport of tl , e v'ew which he has always taken cf the Canada question, his plan -for tranquiliz'ng the Lower Province, he noticed in detail at our cArlies.. leisure; --X pamphlet, mitled " Tilt! C4nad an Contro vel6y," paNished by LONGMAN, contains much valu able informa:on on the great question which now oc cupies Parliament and the puhlie. The author, tnough anonymous, does not appear at all anxious o cr,uccal his lam: ; but a 3 it may. be con- j.2etured tliat he is, or at cue time was, eon- nfcted v‘ith the Government, he warns th» reader against supposing, that, whatever opinion he will find hire, are any other than the private opinions of the author." It iq not improbable that they are the o , )itlions of one who was an inlitmtial Member of t • a former Liberal Government, and who has had re cent opportunities of making himself acquainted with the local grievances of the Colonists ; but though rather tinged with a leaning to the one party to the dis advantage of the other, there is throughout the work a degree of the impartiality and candour for which the gentleman to whom we allude, has ever been remark able. After giving a summary of the history of the Colony up to 1828, he gives ample credit to the gaud intentions of the Colonists, and tacitly admits thattlie Government was in the wrong : The opinion of the writer of these pages (and he wish" to lav particular stress on the admission contained in the first part 6(4) is, that up to that period the Assembly was right in al most every one of the complaints which it preferred, and that in a rene,..edstatement which it made of the same and of some additional grievances in 1831, it acted in pod faith, an d with good reason. The cause of the subsequent misunderstanding be tween the mother country and the colony, attri butes to the present leaders of the violent party acting on an ignorant constituency ; and thereby would lead us to infer that the Constitution o f 1791 must be aitered before discontent can be removed, or the rela tions between the two countries, as well as the two Provinces, be placed on a secure footing : Althou g h, he says, for nearly half a c e ntur y the i n hab!. tants of Lower Canada had possessed the privilege of elect ing one of the Houses of Legislation, th e Greater part of them, certainly, had not taken that interest hi the ordinary course of public affairs, or enjoy e d t h at diff us ion of the simpler elements of education, without which n o system could be successful that should throw all the hi g her branches of Government into the hands of the p eo pl e . u ila ble to read and write, scattered over a vast territory, and never approach ing the seat of Government, a population, s uch as that of Lower Canada, must depend, even fur th e k now l e dge of facts , upon the words of those delegates wh om they ought to b e able t,-) call to account. The representativ e power is left without the only responsibility provided for it by the Constitution ; and the tendency too surely is, that a few should wield the pretended authority of the many, an oli g archy reign in th e name of the people. To any one who has visited Lower Ca neda, this is na ttter nut of speculation, hut of observation. All this may be very true, but one thing it certainly proves against . the Government at home—that while many grievances remained unredressed, no measures were adopted which were calculated to satisfy the just claims of the Lower Assembly from 1828 to 1832 ; the consequence of which was that the demands of the Colonists increased, and what would have satisfied them in 1828 was, after this blameable delay, rejected with scorn. This is but the history of all contests with the people, when they claim their rights, whether at home or abroad. Little doubt can remain, that had the Legislative Council been so constituted in 1828 as it is now, and concessions made in time, the affairs of Canada would have been in a very different posi tion. One of the great complaints against that body, till very lately, was the appointment of Englishmen, to the exclusion of men of French extraction, and to the great number of office-holders. I t appears from t h e « Quebec Almanack," that a vast chann has taken place, but it has been made too late. lit that publication there appear, for this year, the mules of Legislative Confleil!ors. Of th e act i ve an d ;r!)°oriti\tent men amongst them, the lumb er w h o h ave been known throughout t heir lives as the friends of popular rights (but not the advocates of rebellion) amounts to five ; the number of leading persons on the other side may be stated to be the same. Again. the otal number of :nett considered of liberal polities fully goals one half of the Council, wirh this distinction that most of them arc more latdy appointed, and corn 7.76.tivelv oung men; witi! n e several of the others, from infirmity - or other causes, never attend, aid must in the eourse of nature shortly fall off the hat. The number French-Canadian Mt..:mbers and of Ei4lish-Cana- Membra is exactly (-qua'. Here again, and the shorter tenure likely in one class, is applicable to the Councillors of English extraction. Tie proportions of Members who hold offices to those who do not, is eight to thirty-two." The author at considerable length endeavours to justify the Government in appropriating money to pay the judges and civil officers without the consent of 1 the Lower Assembly. But in our opinion it amounts only to this, that the mother country can find no re medy without violating the Constitution of 1791. Several of the mis-statements of Mr. ROEBUCK in his " Portfolio" are pointed out, but at present we have not space for them. - - - - In another part of The San will be found a third Letter from Mr. HUNIE on the subject of the Cana dian grie:•ances, to which we invite the attention of our readers. It is more explicit than any that preceded it ; but the Honourable Member for Kilkenny has not yet succeeded in making out a strong case in favour of the House of Assembly's six months' supply system. Wherefore does he not show how it happened that tlie House of Assembly of Upper Canada voted a permanent Civil List, and that such a demand was spurned as an insult by the Representatives of the Lower Province ? The case of Upper Canada proves that such a vote is not tantamount to Parliamentary self-destruction. The London Committee of Trade Societies, acting oa behalf of the Glasgow - Cotton Spinners, have pub lished an address to their fellow workmen, in which they express their regret at the conviction of the five men tried at Edinburgh, denounce the atrocious act: of assassination and violence imputed to some of them, and declare that they look upon such proceedings with the greatest indignation and abhorrence, and repudiate them in the name of their respective Societies. We can readily believe that not oee in a thousand of these men would sanction such violence for the protection of their rights, anal that with very few exceptions they look with horror at the out rages committed at Glasgow, aiel consequently are anxious to separate themselves hole. aien guilty of such enormous crimes ; but though the •aembers generally :ire innocent, there is a strong pr -umption that cer tain persons connected with these :; ,eicties have been paid out of time funds for eommitt' acts of violence, and there is no doubt that those persons who were the victims snared, because they transgressed the rules. As the plans were laid in secret, the evi dence against them could only come from accomplices, and such evidence must always he received with limi tations ; but still the question resolves itself to this, whe ther we are to believe that a few unprincipled men— say the Secret Committee—would act on the princi ple, that it is just'Eable to do evil that rood may come ; or that numhers of accomplices would, in a Court of Justiee, and under a solemn oath, accuse innocent men af the most atrocious crimes. Neither the Judges nor Jury at Edinburgh would take such evidence as proof that M‘LEAN was guilty of murder, and even the Jury, with the corroborative evidence from the Committee-books, hesitated before they pronounced the criminals guilty of the minor charges. They consulted together for five -hours ; and, according to this address, returned the verdict at last by a majority of only one. An English jury so (Lvided would, in all probability, have aiven tx verdict of acquittal. But, while these facts sneak in favour of the convicts, it cannot be denied, from what has taken place both at Glasgow and Dub that certain parties connected with these Societies have grossly betrayed the confidence placed in them be the great body of the Operatives—that great atro cities have been co:nraitted—and that the voice of pule lie indignation against crimes, hitherto unknown in this country, will compel the Legislature to institute the most rigorous inquiry into the rules and construc tions of Trades' Unions. It is proper that such an inquiry should take place, in older that the inno cent may not suffer with the szuitty, and that those who would still further restrict the Elecctive rianchise, may not use these deeds of darkness as a plea against the Extension of the Suffrage. Such an argument has already been put forth, and will be persevered in, till the great body of the Working Classes can be proved innocent of the charges made against some of these Unions.

TUE FROST.--ThC cold this day has been more intense than we have felt it since the commencement of the frost, the thermometer being not less than twenty-five degrees below the freezing point. At an early hour in the morning a dense fog came on, which continued up to one o'clock, when it began gradually to disperse. We are given to understand that such an intense frost as the present, and of such long continuance, has not been known in England for the last twenty years. Last night, between seven and eight o'clock, a cab ( N o . 209) drew up nearly opposite Drury-lane Theatre, and a gentleman was stepping out of the vehicle, when, setting his foot on the iron, he slipped, owing to the frost being upon it, an d fell on the pavement, his head striking violently against t he curb-stone. The unfortunate gentleman bled profusely, a nd a surgeon, who happened to be passing at the time. gave his opinion that his skull was fractured. By a card which was found in his pocket it appeared that his name was Pierre Ay mot, residing in Poland -street, Oxford-street, whither he was con veyed in a hackney. coach. A gentleman who was in the crowd stated that M. Aymot belooged to the suite of the French Ambassador. T H E WEATITER.—Hitherto from the gradual fall of the snow cur mails, coaches, and waggons have been little impeded in their route between Yarmouth and London ; but on Thursday, the Star coach did not arrive in Ipswich from Yar mouth. having by dint of great exertion proceeded only as far as Yoxford, awl the;, stopped.

We understand there are about 100 men at work on the road" near Yarmouth, and in some places the snow has been diirted 20 feet high.— Jj)swich Express. (From the New Orleans Lee, July 20, 1837.) Canadians tel.] the it - apositiz:n and ction of taxes under the authority of the Briti,b Covetnrnent, and the annintint lit of o. branch of the Pro%incial Legislature by the Crown, a, itrierstnees not to be borne ; and It is cerbinly untecoming the deicmdants of the stern and Cory old Whigs of Serenty-six, who went to war with the mother coun try for a duty of threepence a pound on tea, to say that these grievances of which the Canadians cora e lain ought to be borne. ' The situation of Canada, whatever may be the course of events, is lcalily interesting to the people of the United States. Should the pro vinces beta :re absolved from allegiance to Greet Pritain without a re course to carts, they will most prcbably seek to be attached to the Union en a footing with the present members of the confederacy. The propositlon of such a measure wet:id give rise to angry debates in Con gress, and hot contentions among the people, prompted and exasperated by geognaphlca' and sectional prejudices. If the pre,ent troubles should result in a civil war between Eng,:and and her Canadian Provinces, it would give rise to quarrels and dissensions between this country and England, which might put the pacific dispositions of both to a serious test. Whatever might he the wishes, whatever might he the legislative enactments of our Government, we know, by what we have witmssed in the Texien war, that the young men of the west and north could never be prevented from marching by thousands to the aid of the Canadians. Lures would he held out by those people to entice them into their s. rvice. The Canadian papers have more than once aLuded to the important as sistance they would derive from the rifles of the back woodsmen in ease of a rupture with England. It is usek.rs :o disguise the fact, 11. at such assistance se,:ald he cffered without being asked for. All the legislation et* Congress—all the vigilance cf the Executive, could not prevent it. if Engl sh pride should take the alarm, war would be the consequence, and England would forget the example she herself has exhibited in the civil wars of Spain and Portugal.' The language of the " Gencvese Traveller" is precisely similar : I perceive, in some of the Canadian Government jonrnals, the most violent and 'barbarous menaces against the revolters. Suggestions arc made shocking to humanity—suggestions which, if they could he carried into execution, would disgrace Santa Anna. It is here that the danger is lurking. It is front this source that a rnost bloody warfare is to be apprehended. Firmness and cruelty are rarely kindred qualities. When Santa Anna commenced his butchery, I predict-ad, in my letters to you, what would be the effect upon the people of the Western States, and what would be his fate, so far as the conquest of Texas was concerned. Those predictions have been verified ; and I have no hesitation in saying that unusual and sanguinary punishment in Canada would excite in the New England States, and doubtleis in other States, sympathies that could not be repressed, and acts of hostility on behalf of the revolters, that the whole power, moral and physical, of this Government could not controol or subdee. Volunteers hy thousands would fly to the standard of bleeding humanity, and the final tesult would then he placed far be yond the ken of man. Ido not wish to enlarge upon this topic. It may not be pa'a'able to the perty in Cr out of power in Great Britain, but be assured it is not unworthy of consideration. These remarks are not thoughtlessly made, nor are they in my letters impertinent. They relate stiictly to American affairs; because the policy of the British Govern ment in Canasta, although Lot anticipatcd by either nation, may lay the foundation or these feuds aed angry discussions which may ultimately interrupt that harmony which now happily prevail., between Great Bri tain and the United States.' " Judging, then, from the past, and looking to the present 1 state of feeling in the United States, ant I not ji'sified to as , ,erting that assistance will be given to the insurgent Cana dians b) the citizens of the United States, and that Congres will not dare to interfere ?" Now, we do not exactly understand the sense in which Mr. ROEBUCK employs the word " delighted" in this passage. If that gentleman would thereby in sinuate that it affords us any pleasure to correct a statement of his, for no other reason than that he made • it, and because its tendency is to impress the people of England with a conviction of the influence of the Canadian insurgents in the United States, we beg to assure hint that he has wholly misunderstood the purport (If our commentary.

THE DUKE OF MARLBOROUGH The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment this morning in this case, which was argued before his Lordship a few days since. The case came before his Lordship upon appeal from the decision of his Honour, the Vice-Chancellor, allowing a demurrer, put in by the defendant to the bid of the plaintiff. The bill was filed by the plaintiff as a judg ment creditor of the Duke of Marlborough to a large amount, for the purpose of enforcing the payment of his judgment debt in that Lill. The plaintiff had stated his debt, but he hail not set get the writ of clegit upon which that debt w.rs sought to be reco vered, and not having done so, the defendant demurred to the bill. Upon the case coming on before the Vice-Chancellor, he was of opinion, upon the authority of " Manningham v. Lord Bolingbroke," decided by Lord Bathurst, and Leith and Pope, that it was necessary to state the elegit ; and he therefore allowed the demurrer. Ills Lord ship, after going through the authority, stated his opinion to be, that the decision of the Court below was right, and ordered the appeal to be dismissed with costs. FREWIN V. THE RIGHT 11011. FRANKLAIVD LEWIS. This case came before the Court upon appeal from the decision of his Honour the Vice-Chancellor, overruling the demurrer put in by the defendants, the Poor-law Commissioners, to the Bill filed by the plaintiffs. The Bill was filed by two gentlemen who were Governors and Directors of the Poor of all the united parishes of St. Andrew, Hol born above Bar, and St. George the Martyr, praying that the Poor-la•.s Commissioners might be restrained from enlarging the workhouse in I.ittle Gray's Inn-lane, and expending the sum of 12,0001. for that pur. pose. On th• 29th of March, 1836, the Poor-law Commiss'oners issued an order whereby they constituted a union of the parishes of St. An drew, Holborn, St. George the Martyr, and tile districts of Saffron-hill and Ely-place. By that same order certain proceedings were to be taken for the election of guardians, end the enlargement of the work house was to be made. The plaintiffs being apprehensive that that order was illegal, made an application to the Court of Queen's Bench to remove it by certiorari into that Court for the purpose of having it quashed. That case came before the Court of Queen's Bench a few days since, when their Lordships were pleased to declare that the order of the Poor-law Commissioners was correct. The case now came on before his Lordship, upon appeal from the decision of the Vice-Chancellor allowing the demurrer. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, with whom was Mr. ToetetersoN, appeared for the appellants, the Poor-law Commissioners, and was addressing the w Court when we left. The case appears likely to occupy the Court the whole day. QUEEN'S BENCU.-(THIS DAY.) DOE DEM. GREEN, V. HARRIS. Lord DENMAN gave judgment in this case, which was an action of ejectment for the recovery of certain copyhold property. The Jury ti and a verdict for the plaintiff, but leave was given to move for a new trial or a nonsuit. The question here for the consideration of the Court was, whether a will which had been duly executed had been pro perly 'evoked. The testator was much under the influence of the de visee, N 6 ho lived with him as his housekeeper, but they had frequent quarrels, and on one occasion he threw the will made in her favour into the fire. The paper in which it was wrapped was burned, but the will was uninjured—the devisee having snatched it out of the fire again, and kept it till the death of the testator. These facts being established in evidence, the Jury had found that that was an actual revocation of the will, and was so intended by the testator. It had ben urged that the testator was aware of the will having been saved; that he expressed his annoyance at it, and his determination to make a new will, but had nt done so; and further, that no words had been use d b y hint which could be construed into a revocation of the will. On a full consideration of the case, how ever, the Court was of opinion that it was impossible to limit the testa tor's power in that way. Other equivalent words might have been used, and when these are followed up by acts the revocation was manifest in every part. The suggestion that the testator was aware of the existence of the will and acquiesced in its continuance, should have been given in evid:nce instead of having been left to inference. The new Act for regulating the making of Wills, and which defined what was an act of revocation, would prevent the discussion of such points in future. In the present case, however, the Court was of opinion that the act of revo cation had been made out, and therefore there was no ground for a new trial.— Rule discharged. TIIE QUEEN V. THE CAMBRIDGE GAS-LIGHT COMPANY. This was an appeal from an order of Sessions against a rate imposed by the guardians of the poor of the parish of St. Mary, Cambridge, upon the defendant., for the relief of the pear of that parish. The Magis tr,tes at Sessions confirmed the rate, subject to the decision of the Court upon a case stated. Mr. KELLY (with whom was Mr. Bodkin) new appeared in support of the order of S..,ssions. The Act ine,rporated the Cambridge Gas Light Company (4th Wm. IV.) contained the usual provisions empowering the Company to erect buildings, break up the pave ments, lay down mains, piper, &c., and perform all the other requisites for lighting the Town and University of Cam bridge with gas. The Company's works had been let to a ten ant at the Teat of 2,400/. per annum, the tenant paying all rates, but not providing for the renewal of the works, which were esti mated at 5001. per annum. The assessment had been made upon the sum of 2,4001. and it had been estimated that '7Ol. of that amount was rateable in the pari , li of St. Mary. The Company on the attc r hand onte.ided that tree asse,sment should he made in the following way : their actual income was 5,9661., and their expenses 3,5961., leaving a profit balance of 2,3701. ; from that sum deductions were to be made of 500/. for annual repLir of works, interest of capital, bad debts, &c. accounting in all to 1,325/. 2 leaving a balance of 1,0431. ; they then claimed a further deduction of 814/., being the suns paid for lighting the Colleges of the University, which were not liable to be rated, and they submitted that under all the circumstances the annual sum for which they ought to be rated was 2301. 4s. Sd. The object of, all par ties was that the Court should dacide the principle upon which the Com pany should be rated in the several parishes of Cambridge so as to pre vent further litigation. S.r Wm. FOLLETT having been heard on the other sole, The COURT took time to consider its judgment. EXCHEQUER COURT.-(TIIIS CLIITTON V. KNIGHT. This was an action for damages, sustained by the plaintiff, in conse quence of the defendant having taken down a dam in the river Joberton, by which the meadows in the occupation of the plaintiff were deprived of water. The verdict at the trial was found for the defendant. A rule for a new trial was obtained last term ; it was argue:lto-day at considera ble length. The only question was as to the construction to be put on a lease, dated in 1778 ; and the arguments being entirely legal, possessed no point of interest to the general reader. The COURT discharged the rule, as they thought that though the Chief Justice of the Pleas might not have been strictly correct; still on the evidence substantial justice had been done. COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY GRAINGER V. HILL. The arguments in this case were concluded. The circumstances aro shortly as follow :—The plaintiff; who is the captain of a trading vessel, had borrowed of the defendant a sum of money on mortgage previous to making a voyage. It coming to the ears of the defendant (as he alleged) that the vessel was about to be engaged in a smuggling transaction, he took out a capias against the plaintiff, and put it into the hands of an officer, who went to the plaintiff, then ill in bed, and threatened to arrest him unless be either gave up the register of his ship, or found bail. Upon this the plaintiff surrendered the register, without which he cou'd not make use of his vessel, and which was not returned to him until the debt had been paid. The plaintiff brought his action for abusing the process of arrest, and for trover and conversion of the register. The jury found for the plaintiff, damages 1501. Sergeant Toddy having obtained a rule to show cause why a nonsuit should not be entered, or a new trial granted, or the judgment arrested, on Thursday, Sergeant Talfourd and Mr. James showed cause against the rule. To-day, Sergeant Taddy and Mr. Richards sup. ported the rule, contending that the declaration should have stated the absence of all reasonable cause for the arrest, as well as the malicious arrest : that both were equally necessary to maintain such an action as the present ; and that with regard to the trover count, the register was obtained with the leave and license of the plaintiff, and that there was no conversion, and that there was in fact no arrest, for that the Nicer did not actually take plaintiff's person into custody. The COURT, in giving judgment, were unanimously of opinion that the arrest in this case was sufficiently proved by the conduct of the offi cer, and that the defendant had no right to take out a writ on the ground of debt, and then use it for a totally different purpose ; and that it was a shameful abuse of the process of the Court, to make it the means of extort ing from the person arrested, by false duress, an additional security for the debt, which was not actually due at the time, for the mortgage did notexpire till nearly a twelvemonth afterwards. The taking possession of the register by wrongful means did, in fact, amount to trover and arrest ; and though, in common cases of actions for malicious arrest, it was usual to allege in the declaration the absence of any reasonable or probable cause for the arrest ; yet, as this was a case without precedent, it was to be judged of by its own particular circumstances, and the absence of rea sonable cause for the arrest was evident from the debt not being actually due at the time. The rule must, on all grounds, be discharged. BAIL COURT-(TIIIS DAY). Mr. BALL, who a few days ago obtained a rule for the readmission of a gentleman named Haynes, as an attorney, said that, on investigation at the Rule-office it was found that although a copy of the affidavit had been left with the Master it had not been left with the Judge's Clerk. The object of filing the affidavit with the letter was that it might be handed over to the Law Society, in order that the name of the party might appear on the list. The name of the applicant had been on the list, and his (Mr. Ball's) application was that the affidavit might now be allowed to be filed. Mr. Justice PArrrsoN did not know what business any man, who wished to be readmitted an attorney, had to tal:e the object of the rule into consideration, when the rule directed a certain thing to be done. It was surprising that people should be so obstinate as not to attend to the directions given, and some limit must shortly be set to such pro ceedings. In the present instance, the application was granted. STRIKING OFF AN ATTORNEY. Mr. OGLE moved to make a rule absolute against an attorney named James Wright, for having practised during the period when he was in prison, contrary to the 12th Geo. 11., c. 13. The rule was obtained about ten days before the end of last Term, but the Judge thinking it a matter of importance, and that affidavits might be required on the other side, it was not drawn up until the second day of the present Term. Mr. Wright was no w a p risoner in the Queen's Ilendi, and as that was the case, perhaps his Lor ds hip m i ght wish the matter to stand until the end of Term. Mr. Justice PAMSON did not see why it should, and made the rule absolute. MICLETIIWA ITE V. 111CKLE1IIWAITE. Mr. CRESSWELL moved for a rule to show cause why an award made between the parties in this case should not be set aside. It appeared thar they entered into bonds of submission, by which all matters in dif. fe were referred to three arbitrators, with power to th em or a ny two of r themen e to make an award. One of the arbitrators appointed never at c tended any meeting, was never invited to attend, and was not consulted about the award, which was made by the other two, who directed the clef endant to pay to the plaintiff a sum amounting to nearly 5,0001. Rule granted. BOW-STREET,-(THIS DAY DINING LIKE a Loan.—_A young man named William Tue!et was charge" by George Brariiard, with defrauding him of 55. and assaulting him. It appeared from the statement of the complainant, that he was pro. prietor of the Sun and Panch-bowl public house, High Holborn, and while, his parlour was full of customers, yesterday evening, the prisoner walked in like a person " having authority," and after seating himself i❑ the warmest corner of the room, called the waiter to bring in with a ll ',risible speed a mutton chop, which instantly disappr , ared with a pint of the beat Scotch ale. He next ordered the waiter to stir the tire and bring in a glass of gin and water hot. This was sue ceecd by another, without any disposition being evincrd on the part of the prisoner to fork out the " blunt." The waiter ar:ordingly ac quainted his master that he suspeetcd all was not right ; and on Boniface entering the room, and demanding his reckoning. he was " Oohed into" right arid left by the prisciner, and as circumstances of a similar nature had of late too often occurred, lie was immediatiatcly given in charge. The prisoner in his delmee said, be was directed by Mr, Wills, a friend of his, to get his dinner, .od whatever else he wished to call for, and that he would be responsible for the reckoning, but being irritated (THIS DAY.) by the uoini.lainant, who applied to him the opprobrio . ns apitheZ of thief, I he certainly did assault him. Mr. MINSPULL said he could take no cognizance of the prisoner re. fusing to pay for refreshments, as the landlord should have had his wits about him, but for the assault, when another Magistrate should arrive, the prisoner should pay a fine of .205., and in default Le committed for fourteen days.
